title: The complete mitochondrial genome of Micropercops swinhonis (Perciformes: Gobioidei: Odontobutidae).
abstract: For understanding the phylogenetic position of Micropercops swinhonis within the family Odontobutidae, the complete nucleotide sequence of M. swinhonis mitochondrial genome was firstly determined. The genome is 16,493 bp in length, and consists of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and 2 ribosomal RNA genes) and 2 main noncoding regions (the control region and the origin of the light strand replication). The gene composition and order of which were similar to most other vertebrates. Within the control region, typical conserved domains, such as the termination-associated sequence, central and conserved sequence blocks domains were identified.
